77. Forbes on Antarctic Birds in the Derby Museum. 
[Birds in the Derby Museum collected in the Antarctic Regions. Bull. 
Liverp. Mus. ii. p. 48 (1899).] 
This paper gives an account of the specimens of Antarctic 
birds in the Liverpool Museum derived from the Museum of 
Lord Derby. They belong to eight species, amongst which 
no fewer than five are new to the Antarctic list lately compiled 
by Sclater (Ibis, 1894, p. 494), viz. Nettion flavirostre , 
AEgialitis falklandica, Prion banksi, Podicipes calipareus ) and 
Phalacrocorax atriceps. All the specimens were obtained 
during the Antarctic Expedition by Sir J. Hooker and others, 
and are consequently authentic.
